A video for those who appreciate a well worn Rolex

I came across this video on YouTube. Some might cringe at the wear on this Rolex. Others will appreciate that it's being worn and enjoyed to the fullest.

I have a GMT II LN that looks similar, no chipping on the crystal but definitely some scratches! Don’t see any problem with this at all... if it was a Platona or another highly sought after PM piece I may have a different view as those aren’t every day deals. Everyone needs to have their “every day beater”.

I already had some on here cringe about the wear on my Sub that's less than 6 months old.

looks fine. but why does the owner need to "buy" a new bezel if the spring pin which clicks is seized or whatever? aren't these 6d rolexeses 5yr warranty?

I don’t see much cause for concern in this video. My 1-year-old OP looks about the same.
